[nagdu] Going Inside

[Hannah Chadwick]

Lisa,
She is going about once a day and it just takes a while. She's still on her
diet but I've started mixing her solid food with what the vet recommended.
She gets a lot of praises when she goes but it just takes a while lol.
All the best, Hannah

No, it's not really normal if she's still getting the prescribed amount of
food and water your school recommended.

Do you get her excited before you go outside?  this helps my dog, especially
if I want her to do a number 2 before a walk.  You can also keep her on her
tie down or crated just so the mess will be easier to find and clean up. 
Also taking her out more often and praising her up big time might reinforce
that going outside is a good thing.

If that doesn't work, it could be something medical and you'd need to ask
your school and a vet for advice.

I'd treat it as a behavioral issue for now, though and see what happens.
I'd like an order of ambition, & a side of focus, and a large coffee. And
could you super size that please? It really needs to last for the rest of
the day.
